Katiyar and Verma to reply on EC notice today.

BJP leader Vinay Katiyar and Union Minister Beni Prasad Verma are expected to reply to Election Commission after it issued notice to both of them. They have been accused of prima facie violating the model code of conduct.

They had made remarks on political leaders like Azam Khan and Narendra Modi during their election campaigns. They have been issued a show cause notice and are expected to reply today. EC has strictly warned that it will take further stern actions against them if they fail to turn up today.
